How to use ddd with XWindows?
I apologize if I had already posted this question. However, I did not see my own posting and I assume it never made it to the mailing list. I see from the posting below that you are using startx. H... I think that is the command I use on Linux. I tried it on Win2003 server running cygwin and there is no such command. I'm using the command XWin.exe and I'm trying to run the ddd debugger. XWindows seems to start OK. I can run X utilities like the XClock. However, when I try to start ddd main_assert.exe I get the Error: Can't open display:. Someone in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list suggested I need to set the display and then I was chastised for carrying on off topic. Can someone help me run ddd? Currently, ddd is my only motivation for running XWindows. I was told I needed to start the XWindows server before I could run ddd.

After you've started XWindows run DISPLAY=:0.0 ddd main_assert.exe The DISPLAY environment variable is important you can set it with export DISPLAY=:0.0 in bash or setenv DISPLAY :0.0 in tcsh. bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723

Did you install the X-startup-scripts package? Do you have /usr/X11R6/bin in your PATH? I'm using the command XWin.exe and I'm trying to run the ddd debugger. XWindows seems to start OK. I can run X utilities like the XClock. However, when I try to start ddd main_assert.exe I get the Error: Can't open display:. You did try export DISPLAY=:0.0; ddd main_assert.exe, right? Or even DISPLAY=:0.0 ddd main_assert.exe? Someone in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list suggested I need to set the display and then I was chastised for carrying on off topic. Actually, the other way around (first the off-topic part, then set the DISPLAY), and you weren't chastised, just informed. The message got redirected to this list, too. :-) It also said set the DISPLAY (note the capitals). What it meant was set the DISPLAY environment variable to the correct value. Above are a couple of ways that could be done. Can someone help me run ddd? Currently, ddd is my only motivation for running XWindows. I was told I needed to start the XWindows server before I could run ddd. XWin should do it, but startx will also include some standard command-line options and start an xterm.

Just to interject, the startx script does exist on Cygwin. That's how I typically start X. You have to invoke it in a posix shell on some versions of Windows because of the way Windows detects executable scripts, though.
